TCCD is the platnum, because it will run DDR 2-2-2-5 at extremly low volts.
raw speed will beat out timings but it may take something like another 25mhz of speed to make 2.5-3-3-7 to run equal with 2-2-2-5, depending on your setup of course.

Its a balance.. the best chips out there are still BH but they arent easy to find all the time.. :D
What you need to know really is if you want 24/7 or benchmarks.

would latency help in anything other then benchmarks?
looks like theres a dedicated memory section now :) "xtreme bandwidth"
Of course it would. Compiling, rendering, gaming, etc... can be anything that is memory intensive.
EDIT
Yeah, thought I clicked on the overclocking forum and there was only about 14 topics... was confused lol :confused: :stick: :D :D

Any mod there. Will try harder later.
My crappy TCCD don't do 230 2-2-2.. need some VX or BH5 there.
quick question on psu, sorry off topic.
does having a nonPFC psu even matter if you're using an UPS with line filtering?
no it doesnt :)
Hey guys, do you think this bandwidth could be real?
8551MB/s on a 2.8E @ 260x14 3-4-4
no way that possible
i gat my vx and they stable in 270mhz at 2-2-2-5 3.7v and not stable at 275mhz with the same timing
3.7v it to much for the vx :confused:
that looks like 270 3-4-4-7 ?
omg my mistake (3-4-4-7 = my old corsair)Quote:

Be careful that you are cooling the modules VERY WELL at 3.7v. Put a strong fan blowing right on them. Heat will kill RAM. Only use as much voltage as necessary. Just adding more voltage is not good. We only warranty the VX to 3.5v.Quote:

i have a question for all those having their VX in 250-260 range on Neo2....
when you're testing for stability, are you having any problems in keeping this RAM error-free in memtest for more that 1 hour or not being able to "primie" at all even though games and SuperPI 32M are OK?
my first set was doing DDR512 memtest 9hrs and Prime95 no probs.... my current set gives me errors at above 1hr even at DDR400 and oddly enough i can't even Prime if i don't set max mem to ~800MB (i know, prime95 and 1GB = problems u say) even though i could do it with my first set, not to mention 2x256MB BH-5....
i need your input, please ;)
I've got no problems with mine. Click the link in my sig and notice I can run 12 hours of Prime without incident. The key is keeping the memory and Booster nice and cool. ;)
damn Conrad, when i first saw what your mems were doing a while ago i was impressed....Quote:

I'm actually running a little bit higher than 263MHz now. This stuff has gotten better over time. I'm just saving the ooohs and aaahs for my next rig. :D
After seeing what the new G.Skill kits can do, I'm tempted to purchase a set. I had pretty good results with my 2x256MB kit when they first dropped, so I might consider playing with G.Skill TCCD in the 2x512MB variety one of these days.
Look for the 90nm Winchester Prime95 thread on XS. Many won't Prime at all, even at 200fsb.Quote:

i have no clue what's up with that so i guess i will just give up on that VX set ( i'm sorry Andy, i appreciate ALL your help, bro ;) )
ok andy i will, now i put 80mm fan to cooling the vx, and i give 3.6v (fullQuote:

#50 ?Quote:

What is too hot for memory on those extreme condition (voltage & speed) Got 2 60mm fan directly on top of memory (I found it that these cools better than typical 2 80mm due to pressure of air it generates) and heatsink on booster and memory (inside heatspreader using infrared thermo) reads tops 36c (about 7-8c above ambient) with 3.5v 255 2-2-2-5) What are the temps of your sticks for those who can go 250+ with decent voltage? Just trying to figure out how much more room I got with this pair. (Oh, I use memtest86 only to test windows boot issue now. Windows memtest seems much better at finding if it will fail system or not more so than memtest86... it usually is stable 3-4mhz below what memtest86 is stable at).
Hmmm need to pick up VX back from my friend who played 270 2-2-2-5 with it :P (think he got it to 3.6v though)
Bit off topic... I am starting to really like this gigabyte K8NS 939ultra. No divider issue with VX, no wierd things I should be worried about, everything is working like charm with F5 bios.
I think PC Power & Cooling is even better, I own one and it's really the best PSU I've tested and owned. :cool:Quote:

Don't forget you are runnig a half multiplier (x10,5), your memory is now running at 2893/11 = 263 MhzQuote:

I have G.Skill memory though and I can't get it to run at thight timings above 220Mhz, so I'm running 265 2.5-3-3-7 which costs me a lot of points I think. Don't know if I'm missing something about this memory, cause I don't think the G.Skill is that great... :confused: So far I only got 33k (Not tweaked and using WinXP though)
Pump that FSB up to 290, you'll see if what it's like then :toast:Quote:

If your looking for VX Outpost have it in stock now.
^ thanks for the heads up
Yes. It will definitely run on the DFI 754 board. I've tested up to 269MHz with 2x512MB error-free and stable with that board and a Clawhammer.Quote:

It'd be great for sales and ect, and I'm sure its been talked about at the OCZ HQ
you could unsolder 1/2 the chips and run 2x256 that way.. :D:D
Or you can check out the Twinmos sticky, cough up a few bucks, buy a 2x256MB kit, and be a happy camper. ;)
Not worth ruining excellent memory in venture of smaller sticks :xQuote:

WOW.
People are all hyped up over GSkill, this stuff whoops its ass! DDR540 @ 2-2-2-5 1T gives much better bandwith than DDR600 @2.5-3-3-7 1T!
Amazing stuff. Depending how low my Gskill want to go it seems like i'm going to pick up a gig of these!
How high at any timings does this ram go? 270 2-2-2-5 is nothing short of amazing, with only BH5 beating it :)
Hello Guys ! /newbie, 1st post :p: /
I have a few questions:
You use only memtest to check memory or other soft?
Why I asking? because i tested my XV (my new mems :p: ) with memtest #5 ~~50 lops without errors, super pi 16M, prime ~~1 hour also. But gold memory 'show me' many errors (test 121+) and i don't know which test is more 'believable'. It's normal appearance, or I expected too much from them?
I tested them at: @235 2-2-2 3,25V (dual on nf7) :confused:
P.S. sorry for my english :rolleyes:
Greetings
it's normal on NF7 mobos...they dont tend to allow high FSB...some kind of wall at 225 range
...everything above it's a bonus.
Probably yes... but I tested them yesterday with prime ~~3-4 hours @235 3,2V without any problem. Today I try to burn in them with memtest, maybe it's the way...
But, what with first part of my question? Why with goldmemory I have errors, so other progs. runs fine all the time? I don't know what is wrong with this program...
Got myself a new pr 2 :)
http://img135.exs.cx/img135/5972/273sandra1fp.jpg
3,5v
not memtest stable though, but i can run a 3dmark2k1se bench with ~270mhz 3,5v :toast: :banana:

would believe me ???
i guess we would have to..grudgingly of course ;) or hope its a .5 multi
kidding...its not unheard of..so cheers mate
What burn in procedure is better: with Memtest or with Sandra? Will unwackme-BH5-BurnIn help für UTT too?
Seriously ! I wanna make sure, if anyone have ever see anybody who overclocked a OCZ Patimum Revision II PC3200, that can handle with stability, with only 2.7v at 285Mhz 1:1 cas 2.5-3-3-6Quote:

Hey Andy did your sticks always do that speed or only after time?
Andy, maybe I've already asked it, but can you run your VX higher than 3.4vdimm without losing stability?Quote:
